Mechanically the Nightforce is brilliant and I have never seen one with an incorrect click value. You dial 10 MOA or Mil up and that's where the bullet hits, assuming you can shoot of course. The S&B is every bit as good mechanically and I much prefer the feel of the clicks. Personally I find the NF clicks a bit mushy.

As I said earlier March tactical optics are amazing,especially considering they only have a 44mm obj lens. The tubes are no where near as tough as either the S&B or NF. However they are WAY lighter!! Turrets are magic, clicks are almost as good as the S&B but not quite. Certainly better than the NF. Jury is still out on their click values however.

Given the parameters you've given I would go a S&B PMII in 5-25 or a Hendsolt.

Could you give us a run down on the click value errors in the march? Ie how you identified them ,how bad they they are and most imortantly what Stuart Elliot said re fixing the problem?
